Example: You place a moneyline bet for an NFL game. Your team is losing as the first half approaches the end, so you place an in-game moneyline bet for the other team prior to the start of the 2nd half such that the amount wagered for the in-game bet offsets the loss on the traditional pre-game bet if your team should lose. I'm thinking this could be a tool for avoiding a large loss by taking a smaller loss via the in-game insurance hedge.
